Three years ago | contracted blood poi

his treatment came near killing me. | EN-
plOyed an old physician and then went to
Ky. then went 10 Hot Springs and re-
manned two months. but nothing seemed to
cure me permantly, although temporary re-
lief was given me. My condition grew
desperate and applied 10 a noted quack,
but did not improve. | then used a prep
aration which was prescribed gratis" but
il contained too much alcohol and agra
waited my sutferings. | then placed myself
under the treatment of noted Nashville
physician ard for time was benefited. but
by fall | returned home a ruined man phys
ically and financially. with but little pros
pect of ever getting well. My money being
exhausted. did not know what TO do. In
May, 1855. my mother persuaded me to
get bottle of b. b. Il. (made in Atlantal
and did 50 to crafty her, but to my utter
astOnishment had not finished the first
bottle before every ulcer had been healed.
To the present time have used five bot
ties and have received more benefit than
from all the rest combined; and am salts
fed that B. Il. B. is the most wonderful
blood purifier ever before known, and
urge all afflicted young men Ia try one sin
bic bottle and be convinced. | can truly
say that think it the best medicine in the

Cleveland is ensuffng for itself a boom
that will have sOlidity and permanence for
its chief elements. A committee of the
hoard of industry, having W. NJ. Day for
its chairman. met yesterday and issued an
address designed Ia bring together Cleye-
land real estate owners who want To give
free sites for new manufacturers, and per
sons desiring TO locate manufacturing i'll
dustries in Cleveland. The committee in-
vite proposals from people with sites To do
maize. and correspondence from outside
parties heading toward Cleveland. They
will send out thousands of circulars setting
forth Cleveland's advantages as a manufac
turing and shipping center. This means
work, but it is the kind that will come back
in benefits paying many fold for all the
effort. The example ought 10 be profitable
